Board member and co-editor Brian Henderson brought his long history with FQ and a wonderful intellectual rigor and imagination to the introductions he wrote for this volume I value the time we worked together and the contribution he made. This volume developed in the best sense as a group project, and my deepest gratitude for their guidance and participation goes to the Film Quarterly editorial board members-Leo Braudy, Ernest Callenbach, Brian Henderson, Albert Johnson, Marsha Kinder, and Linda Williams-without whom this book, both in concept and in form, could not have appeared.
